synopsis
Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
The sutra
Tzu Kung grew weary of study and told Confucius 'I want to find rest.'
'There is no rest for the living.'
'Then shall I never find it?'
'You shall. Look forward to the lofty and domed mound of your tomb and know where you shall find rest.'
'Great is death! The gentleman finds rest in it, the mean man submits to it!'
'Tzu Kung, you have understood. All men understand the joy of being alive, but not its misery, the weariness of growing old, but not its ease, the ugliness of death, but not its repose.'
